NOTE: All evaluations are authentic. Only former participants who have booked a course with us at the school can publish evaluations after the end of the course. Schools could therefore not manipulate evaluations and you can trust in all published evaluations.

Excellent organization, teachers sympathetic and willing to help. Convenient area, full of restaurants where you eat with € 5. I felt really welcomed and listened to, even about my food intolerances. Extracurricular activities were very well organized, level much higher than I imagined, I'm really convinced that it is well spent my money by enrolling in Summer Holiday Course and not only to 'Intensive Course. I was able to visit places that alone would not have been able to achieve. The family assigned to me was wonderful. Very helpful, even about my eating problems. They will remain in my heart even after this experience.

The Summer Course includes social activities (the various outputs, etc.) is worth all the money you pay. You will be taken to all the places that people who view Japan would like to see, but, contrary to what you might do on your own, you will have great service that only people who know and speak the language more grab. When I went, many did not think that the proposed routes were not much: this is absolutely false. The activities that seem most insignificant, how to paint a lantern, turned out to be interesting and unique. Do you enjoy the program so rich and well organized because some activity there is the greatest.

The staff is fantastic. The method of teaching, for the classes of conversation, it is very good, you have the opportunity to decide how deep you go to things, working at home as desired. There was also those who merely do their homework on the train, but I personally was there to learn the language and then at home I worked more. In any case you can choose how you work depending on what is your goal. The environment is very multi-ethnic.

Really pationate teachers with very good didactical skills. Moreover it is great fun to learn here. It's a comfortable and pretty new place. Students are coming from all around the world to study at Kudan Inst. and compared to other language schools in Tokyo, there is a great variety of nations not only east-asian citizens. Which is a advantage to all western citizens that do not start at the same level of Kanji-Knowledge.

The atmosphere in which we learnt, a positive outlook on education and a positive learning enviornment.

Make sure your able to access information on your bank/atm account,like how much is left in your account and be able to take out enough money.My limit was 10,000yen and i wasnt able to find out how much remained in my account.

Regarding school, I think it is good to know that the Kudan Institute of Japanese Language & Culture Co., Tokyo adopts the "Minna no Nihongo" (both I and the second volume) as a textbook. If I had known, I would request at the time of the option not to buy from the school, as it already possessed. For the rest, it is important to know that in Japan it is difficult to withdraw cash with Visa or, as many ATM only accept credit cards in Japan. However, it is easy to remove the ATM outlets "7ileven (sevenileven), widespread throughout the city (near virtually every subway stop or train). This information was very useful to me.

I was overall very good and I had no problems during my stay (at least nothing that has not been able to settle quickly with the help of school staff).

I had one outstanding teacher with whom I had class three days a week.
In general,I improved my grammar substantially, my vocabulary and kanji knowledge remained the same. My speaking skills only improved from my experiences outside the school.

Japan is a great country which can teach us so much. They are very creative in many branches of knowledge and arts and there is a strong cultural gap between Japan and Western cultures.
